Project Details

Nodo 37.png

Node.js is an open-source, cross-platform JavaScript run-time environment that executes JavaScript code outside the browser.

Node.js brings event-driven programming to web servers, enabling development of fast web servers in JavaScript. Developers can create highly scalable servers without using threading, by using a simplified model of event-driven programming that uses callbacks to signal the completion of a task. Node.js connects the ease of a scripting language (JavaScript) with the power of Unix network programming.

In easier to understand words: Node-js is a free platform whose goal is to provide its users the possibility to create lightweight and cost efficient web servers, how does Node.js do this?

Node.js handles web server connections in a way so they don´t take up as much space in a server, and thus, the owner of a project would not need to invest as much money in multiple servers to store so much information in Gigabytes.

Being an Open Source Project, Node.js possesses immense value for providing so much while at the same time being totally free.

Contribution Specifications

737,531 words have been translated so far in the Spanish translation folder of Node.js, which amounts to a total of 70% done in regards to the completion of the translation of this big project.

Translation Overview

In this contribution, I started translating the third url.md folder of Node.js.

URL stands for Uniform Resource Locator, colloquially termed a web address. It is a reference to a web resource that specifies its location on a computer network and a mechanism for retrieving it.

Uniform Resource Locators were defined in 1994 by Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the World Wide Web.

The format combines the pre-existing system of domain names (created in 1985) with file path syntax, where slashes are used to separate directory and filenames. Conventions already existed where server names could be prefixed to complete file paths, preceded by a double slash (//).

In this contribution (just like in my previous one), I took a different approach and continued to translate this folder in order, following the sequence of the information:

Here in the last image you can see that the green text is made up of strings that have already been translated, I decided to translate the strings of this folder in order this time.

This time, the concepts that showed the most relevance were Iterator and ASCII.

These are some examples of strings that show these words:

1 . ITERATOR

2 . ASCII

Those are the new words I found on url.md.


These are the meanings of the concepts I learned about while working on this contribution:

Iterator:

An iterator is a generalization of a pointer, used for abstracting addresses of elements of different structures. Where a pointer addresses exactly one object, an iterator can address multiple linear objects. As a result, it happens to be a very powerful for allowing data structures to interface with algorithms that aren’t aware of the structure they are operation on.

An iterator is also an object that represents a stream of data. Unlike a sequence, an iterator can (usually) only provide the next item.

Various types of iterators are often provided via a container's interface.

Iterators date to the CLU programming language in 1974.

ASCII:

The word ASCII stands for: American Standard Code for Information Interchange.

ASCII is a character encoding based on the latin alphabet, the same way that it is used in modern English.

The ASCII code uses 7 bits to represent characters, even though it initially used an additional bit (parity bit) that was used to detect transmission errors.

Almost every current information system uses the ASCII code to represent texts and control the devices that handle keyboard text.

ASCII was the most common character encoding on the World Wide Web until December 2007, when UTF-8 encoding surpassed it; UTF-8 is backward compatible with ASCII.

Languages

The project's source language is English and it is being translated into Spanish.

Also, Node.js is currently being translated into other 32 languages. I´m contributing to making this project accessible to the Spanish speaking community online.

Besides collaborating as a translator for Open Source Projects on Crowdin I also work as a Freelance Translator for a law firm in the US, I've been working for that company for one year and six months, translating sworn statements and legal documents from English to Spanish and viceversa.

Open Source Projects I've worked on and contributed to as a translator:

1 . Verdaccio

2 . OroCRM

3 . BiglyBT

4 . The Curious Expedition

5 . Node.js

Hi @elpoliglota,

Thank you for submitting your contribution!

  • Node.js is a very interesting project that contains many code values and terms related to computer science. Its difficulty relies on the fact that we must pay a lot of attention to the code in order to deliver the most accurate translation possible.

  • You did a very good job with your presentation post, it explains the purpose of the text you translated in a clear and precise way. You also included useful concepts you learned while working on this contribution, as well as examples.

  • Once again, you delivered an accurate translation. Your wording and spelling are correct and appropriate for the Spanish language and for the project.

Keep up the good work :)
